Simulation: The real story. (Design).(factory simulation software)

Simulation software used to focus on getting materials handling Systems To run properly. Now features and functions are pushing simulation into the operational aspects of factory automation.

There's much to understand about factory simulation software and its capabilities, which include how to determine plant capacity, balance manufacturing lines, manage bottlenecks, solve inventory and work-in-process problems, test new scheduling practices, justify capital expenditures, and optimize production rates, says Bill Nordgren, president of Enterprise Dynamics (formerly F&H S
